    Great album for a band that is even more so; a continuous release of sensations that are vastly different from each other, through wonderful songs that envelop you in a whirlwind of notes. Predominantly fierce metal attacks that hark back to their early works, followed immediately by tranquility with musical passages so delicate that sometimes it feels like listening to two different bands within the same songs... They are the best in their genre, and there's no question about it, at least for me.

The highest peak they have ever reached. Quality, technique, imagination, power. Even today, it sounds great.

    For the genre (which I've never been crazy about) it's a masterpiece.

    I agree with hell. But having never loved the genre that much, it doesn't drive me crazy.

    My favorite album by the band; you've said it all in just a few words. "Holy Wars...The Punishment Due" is a song that perfectly opens an album that I still enjoy listening to today.

From this masterpiece, many will take inspiration. Fortunately, only trash will emerge from it. This album is untouchable.

    Praise and eternal honor to the Melvins... Well done, Rolando, excellent recommendation that I'll definitely listen to again tomorrow. Tasty cover that fits the season...

    What an album... damn what an album!! Damn what a band! One of the bands of my life. Discovered in '94 seeing them live... when they opened for Nirvana at the Palaghiaccio. Until then, I only knew them by "fame"... It was love at first sight.

    I remember the Milan date of the last Nirvana tour; during the Melvins' performance, there were just four of us, or a little more, in the pit. And a friend of mine even threw me over the crowd.

    I bought the VHS in Milan... can you believe it? The setlist was the same as the one in Rome, if I remember correctly. The Melvins: just a little over an hour of infernal distortions. I was left speechless. We left from Alba Adriatica [TE] in the morning, 5 of us in a beat-up Fiat 127, a couple of bottles of wild turkey, some plegine, weed, and tabs of acid... it was one of those many otherworldly experiences. ps. Nirvana... Cobain was a shadow of his former self. Then he went into a coma... when I learned the news a couple of months later about his death, I wasn't surprised at all. Anyway... history.

    "Big Fun" is part of the "Bitches Brew" experience and features people like Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock, Joe Zawinul, Billy Cobham, Chick Corea, Wayne Shorter, and John McLaughlin, I don't know if that's not much.

    Well, many were already valid before, he just threw them into an electric socket and that’s no small feat ;) This album came out in 1974 but it was all recorded between 1969 and 1972.

Together with Wrong, two gems. I remember when it came out in '91; a friend of mine played it for me. Forget about grunge.
I think there's a curious story about them, like how a fan once shouted at them to stop being old and that they could be grandparents, and the drummer replied something like, "For you, asshole, we're great-grandparents."
Great ones :-D

    I'm re-listening to Erpsongs from '85 for almost a year now. The first cassettes were a bit rough (especially the sound of the drums), but if you listen closely, you can already hear all the ingredients.

    A compilation of their '80s records?

    It's basically a CD compilation of the best old tracks that were only released on cassette. From '84 to '91.

  • hjhhjij

    Got it. However, I noticed that it stops at 1989, not '91, also because I read that they had released their first CD back in 1989. Right? Anyway, very interesting, something to consider for a summary of their early works when I want to start.
  • hjhhjij
    15 may 14
    2 hours wow that's not much :D So all six cassette tapes are in a box set reissued on CD? I'm always attracted to box sets but for now, it's not happening, too expensive :) At most, I'll stick with torrenting. But how do those first albums sound? Good or crap?
  • rolando303
    15 may 14
    Yes, the first one on CD is '89 (masterpiece). They sound divine remastered. Roger Waters' son plays on it too :-D
